If Anderson can't beat ED, than right there, there is a problem.And in totals again, AC comes in third most nites.I don't care how many people are in his twitter account. They obviously don't translate into solid ratings.This is a major problem with him.AC depends on the "older viewer" in daytime and they are not there for him.You can't depend on the younger viewer who is fickle and not set in their ways.

I really hope that in the future 360 talks moreabout international news. Why can't one of thenews bulletins be devoted to international news ?It is essential for us to know the world. Not 1network devotes enough time to global affairs.

That is why BBC & Al Jazeera is becoming verypopular with younger viewers. Americans needto know the world. China, India, Asia, Africa,Europe, South America and anywhere in the world. There is so much for CNN to cover. Dosomething other than opinion all day long.

Isha knows international news. In fact since sheis well know to CNN viewers have her anchor anhour of international news. It doesn't have to beyour typical global news show. You can have thecocoa story, the Latin American drug story thatwas on CNN Presents. You could do a global world mix with music. The theme song could beReckoner by Radiohead. Give her the 2 PM hour.

I agree that Al Jazeera English is becoming very popular with younger viewers. Im a college student, and love the simplicity of it. I love how it streams live online for free! No pundits, just straight news, no opinion. Great to see former CNN anchor Tony Harris on it! It really saddens me how CNN has become. CNN Primetime isn't great anymore. Piers is terrible and Anderson doesn't seem to put the effort he used to put into AC360º. Seems like his daytime talk show is a bigger priority for him. I am also disappointed in Starting Point. I expected better from Soledad O'Brien. It's just a chat fest. This is CNN! When I want to see opinion and talk, I will watch The View. The only good show I watch on CNN now (even though there still are pundits on it) is The Situation Room. Wolf Blitzer is great. I also really enjoy Don Lemon on weekend evenings.

The demo is how all of the networks make money.You can't just think of television as just that box anymore. It is tied to social media. Mobile has justpassed print and will soon take over radio. That'swhy you offer episodes of 360 available for anyoneto see . With out CNN being on multi platforms itcan't survive. It is a combo of TV, DVR, mobile,websocial media and gaming consoles ( CNN ignores).We live in a world of whenever people are watchingevents on TV they go to Google and social media.President Obama will be using crowdsourcingwhile delivering his State Of The Union Address.Not sure how that will look on TV but I will DVRto see how it works out. The world sis changingand CNN should commit 1 hr a day to world news.Grand parents are on Facebook.

Thank you ANON 11:41 AM. The suits at CNNdon't understand that the pundits drag downthe news. It's about reporting and story telling.CNN is too busy going with destructive/divisivechatter rather than news that really maters.360needs to get back to being 360. You are rightKen Jautz has to get up out of CNN.. The mandestroyed CNN and made the network a nationaljoke. So why is he still there ?

I agree that Starting Point is a disappointment - not only is it all pundits but the SAME pundits everyday. CNN looks like they hastily through together a morning show. Soledad is not being well served by the panel on the show. I've been watching CBS Morning Show and it rocks. Remind me, how CNN lost Erica Hill?! She is ten times the journalist that Erin "Wall Street Spokesmodel" Burnett could ever be. I love AC but, I agree, he seems to be phoning it in lately. Perhaps the CNN brand is getting too heavy to carry.

Folks: CNN and other cable networks will never devote 2 hours to international news. Never.We all say we want to see more global coverage, but only when it directly concerns us.Networks have tried this before and no one watches international news.Right here, there is a commenter who wants to be entertained with "bump music," while they watch The News.Americans in general are the least interested people when it comes to global news. Unlike European countries, we have no world view and we don't care.It's just like we say we love "Anderson but lately he's been phoning it in."Not lately, he's been phoning it in for a while and now and if we "loved him so much," his ratings would be higher, day and nite.So CNN and Fox will keep the pundits you're not watching because in reality, someone IS, watching or they wouldn't be on.

But CNN can afford to try something different being as though out of the big three, they are the lowest rated cable news network (most of the time.)

With all the high powered talent at CNN International right at their fingertips, a international news show is not out of the question. A few years back they did infact have an hour of international news.

It's not like we're all flocking to their daytime news program, they can use a bit of change. And if it doesn't work, really they are not losing a thing?
